Abstract:
The invention relates to a method that permits the direct application of a dielectric layer to a metallic layer containing copper. According to said method, two process gases (26, 28) are excited by means of respectively different plasma powers for each substrate surface or one of the process gases (26) is excited by means of a plasma and the other process gas (28) is not excited.
Abstract:
The integrated component has a number of conductor paths (13) and a capacitor (12) with a dielectric layer (5) between 2 electrode layers (14,15), which together are provided using the same sequence of metallisation layers (3,4,7-11) as that for the adjacent conductor path. The capacitor electrode layers may each be coupled to an underlying or overlying metal conductor path layer via a perpendicular connection (2,16), e.g. formed in an underlying intermediate dielectric layer (1).
Abstract:
Process for forming a dielectric. The process may include forming the dielectric on a metallization and capacitor arrangement. The process allows the direct application of a dielectric layer to a copper-containing metallization. Accordingly, two process gases may be excited with different plasma powers per unit substrate area, or one process gas may be excited with a plasma and another process gas may not be excited.

Abstract:
Capacitor has a capacitor electrode (E1) formed on a surface of an intermediate dielectric (1). Another intermediate dielectric (4) is formed on the intermediate dielectric (1) and includes an opening for exposing a part of the capacitor electrode. An electrically conductive diffusion-barrier layer (5) is formed on the surface of the capacitor electrode. Another capacitor electrode (E2) is formed on a surface of a capacitor dielectric (6) and includes only another electrically conductive diffusion-barrier layer (7). One of the capacitor electrodes includes titanium, tantalum, tantalum nitride and/or titanium nitride. An independent claim is also included for a method of manufacturing a metal-insulator-metal capacitor.
Abstract:
To fabricate an integrated semiconductor product with integrated metal-insulator-metal capacitor, first of all a dielectric auxiliary layer ( 6 ) is deposited on a first electrode ( 2, 3, 5 ). This auxiliary layer ( 6 ) is then opened up ( 15 ) via the first electrode. Then, a dielectric layer ( 7 ) is produced, and the metal track stack ( 8, 9, 10 ) for the second electrode is then applied to the dielectric layer ( 6 ). This is followed by the patterning of the metal-insulator-metal capacitor using known etching processes. This makes it possible to produce dielectric capacitor layers of any desired thickness using materials which can be selected as desired. In particular, this has the advantage that via etches can be carried out significantly more easily than in the prior art, since it is not necessary to etch through the residual dielectric capacitor layer above the metal tracks.
